Canadian Boating Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

What is the 'Waterline' of a boat?

Line where water exits the boat

Top edge of the boat

Intersection of a boat's hull and the water's surface

The Waterline of a boat is the intersection of the boat's hull and the water's surface. This point can be easily seen when a boat is floating in water. The other options can be ruled out because A) Water does not exit the boat, it is simply the line where the boat meets the water surface. B) The top edge of a boat is called the gunwale. D) The line where the boat is painted does not have anything to do with the boat's design or functionality. It is simply where the paint ends. Therefore, the intersection of the boat's hull and the water's surface is the most accurate answer for the Waterline of a boat.
